Germany is so much more than Bavaria, beer gardens and castles.In this episode of the Wander Your Way podcast, I'm joined by Germany travel expert Cate Brubaker of My Germany Vacation to dig a little deeper into this fascinating and diverse country.Cate has been traveling to and living in Germany since she spent her senior year of high school there. She went on to earn bachelor's, master's and PhD degrees in German and has spent decades exploring the country. So when it comes to Germany, she has a lot of knowledge to share!We talk about some of Cate's favorite places, including history-filled Berlin, the lively university city of Freiburg and the beautiful Black Forest, and the maritime city of Hamburg in northern Germany.But we venture even farther beyond the usual stops as Cate introduces us to Germany's northern islands, including Sylt, Rügen and the car-free island of Hiddensee, where you'll find beaches, hiking trails and landscapes that might completely change the way you picture Germany.Along the way, Cate shares practical advice about traveling by train versus renting a car, getting around without speaking German and why your travel style should help determine how you move around the country.And, of course, we couldn't talk about Germany without talking about Christmas markets! Cate shares some of her favorites and explains why smaller neighborhood markets can sometimes offer an even more memorable experience than the famous ones.If you've only thought of Germany as Munich, Bavaria and the Alps, this conversation just might inspire you to dig a little deeper.Want to chat more about Germany?Send me a message at Lynne@WanderYourWay.com.In this episode:1:58: Intro4:08: Getting to know Cate13:46: Cate's top 3 destinations16:40: Berlin: The Wall25:51: Freiburg: The Black Forest39:54: Hamburg: Harbors, Canals, Lakes48:15: Honorable Mention: The Islands52:12: Logistics & Tips55:45: Christmas Markets1:06:06: Final thoughts1:08:18: Wrapping it upImportant links: My Germany VacationGermany Travel Planning PodcastWander Your WayWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your Way ResourcesREI ★ Support this podcast ★

Andrea is hot off another successful cookbook club meeting, and has several desserts to report on from the new Smitten Kitchen cookbook, Every Day. Meantime, Stefin is cleaning her stainless steel sink with an old-fashioned cleaning agent: Bicarb! (That's baking soda in the USA.) Both hosts debate how dangerous a bread and cake delivery service could be after Andrea tries one with delicious results. Speaking of delicious, Andrea has a new favorite birthday cake, the Fudgy Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting from, yes, Smitten Kitchen! Next, Stefin cues the violins and the hosts recount birthday treats they pined after as children (Barbie and the Matterhorn is all we'll say). And finally, Cate Brubaker, founder of International Desserts Blog, joins Stefin to talk about travel, global food trends, "freakshakes" and quark, and recreating favorites at home. Bake along with Stefin and Andrea in their baking Facebook group, Preheated. You can find links to recipes on their baking website, www.preheatedpodcast.com. Join the fun!
